Re: My 2¢ was Re: Linux Programmer

This will give you a print out of most of the characters you'd need... might
redirect it into a text file so you can save it for later and just copy and
paste the character when you need it...

perl -e 'for($i=32;$i<=255;$i++) { print $i , " = " . chr($i) . "\n"}'
